In that vein, may I suggest you learn to make your best use of e-mail.
E-mail can sometimes provide you an alternative access to various
Internet functions that may prove to be limiting or a hindrance with
other Internet applications.
If you have no knowledge or experience using e-mail to access the
Internet, then please send for the ACCMAIL FAQ, also known as
"Accessing the Internet by E-mail"
Here are some of the ways you can get the ACCMAIL FAQ:

Enter only this line in the body of the note:
send usenet/news.answers/internet-services/access-via-email
--
Send email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (for Europe, Asia, etc.)
Enter only this line in the body of the note:
